I love seeing everyone's trees. I need to take a picture of mine. I bought a new one this year so that it wasn't as big around (the thing was HUGE!!!) So I don't have to use "filler" ornaments this year. They are almost all ornaments that are special to us. We have a tradition, every year we buy a new ornament for our tree for each person. My husband started giving me ornaments when we were dating in high school. I thought it was the sweetest Christmas gift! So now we buy atleast one new ornament per person per year. I say one, but we usually end up with more than one, LOL.

This is our Christmas Tree. I always set up a Nativity set under the tree. I have 16 Nativity sets between the living room, dining room and family room. In our culture the Nativity display is very important.

Quite lovely. And I agree. I am not Cuban, but the Nativity is always a big part of my Holiday, as well. HE is the reason for the season. Not all the greed that seems to go with things. I welcome everyone to celebrate in their own way, but for me I don't use "Xmas". I put the Christ in Christmas.

Your tree is beautiful, CubanMother. I love your star topper.

And for all the other posters that I did not get to comment on...I have enjoyed them all the same. So glad you are enjoying all your holiday things. I wish a Merry Christmas to all, or whatever you celebrate for the Yule.

What a beautiful selection of Christmas tree's. We too have a number of Nativities dotted about the house as a gentle reminder of the reason for the season. I am currently enjoying this on You Tube. It moves me to tears each time I see it. Merry Christmas to everyone no matter how you celebrate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Zh-yR0pbmU
